Hello,
I am wondering if anyone knows of any evening or part-time nursing programs (for someone with no prior nursing education) in Washington state. I saw Edmonds CC and LWTC teamed up for one, but that is the only one I've found. I'm REALLY hoping there is another one out there (or soon to be!). Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much! :)

South Seattle Community College has a LPN program that meets 2-3 times a week in the evening from 6-9pm with clinicals on the mornings of saturday and sunday 6-2. Hope that helps!

Skagit Valley College @ Oak Harbor (satellite branch)has 2 year part time LPN program. The next one begins in Sept 08. When you are done you can bridge over to the Mt. Vernon campus to fulfil your RN. LPN graduates from Oak Harbor have first priority in the 2nd year program @ Mt. Vernon. You need to have all your prerequisites done by Spring of next year to start up in Oak Harbor. Classes meet on Tuesday and THursday from 5:30 to 9:00pm and Saturday from 9-12 or 12-3. I know this because I was considering it and had my name on their waiting list when I got accepted elsewhere. I really like Skagit Valley because they are nice and professional. But it is 2 hrs from where I am. The school has a good reputation so that's why I was considering the drive!
Look into Tacoma Comm College too. I think they have a part time program and viable if you have really good grades.

Lower Columbia College in Longview WA has an evening program for reaching LPN status, with ability after LPN completion to continue for RN.
Last I heard they were planning an evening RN AND an LPN to RN that is online classes all year and all your clinicals in one full time summer program.
